Abstract

Brief descriptions of the theory of fuzzy sets, selected operations on fuzzy sets, fuzzy relations, and the fuzzy c-means algorithm are presented in this chapter. The purpose of these descriptions is to provide the reader with enough background for the introduction of the concepts of fuzzy recurrence plots and networks in the following chapter.
